November’s Healthy Life Lesson:
Are you worried about the upcoming holiday season and preventing extra holiday weight gain? The holidays are full of delicious feasts, turkey dinners, and tantalizing sweets left and right. Add on top of that the inherent sense of laziness. Holidays are generally a time to relax, eat too much, and relax some more. Between pies and cross-country travel, it can be pretty tough to stay active during the holiday season. Not to mention you have to contend with cooler weather! With family obligations, work parties and last-minute shopping trips staying active can be a challenge. Join us to learn more about staying active over the holiday season.

December’s Healthy Life Lesson:
Traditional Chinese medicine is one of the oldest continuous systems of medicine in history, with recorded instances dating as far back as two thousand years before the birth of Christ. This is in sharp contrast to the American or Western forms of health care, which have been in existence for a much shorter time span. The primary feature of modern Chinese medicine is the premise that good health relies on the restoration and maintenance of harmony, balance and order to the individual. Traditional Chinese medicine takes a holistic approach to understanding normal function and disease processes and focuses as much on the prevention of illness as it does on the treatment. In the United States, people use traditional Chinese medicine primarily as a complementary health approach.

Presented By: Dr. Charlotte Lin, MD – Family Medicine
About The Presenter: Dr. Lin joined Summit Health’s Family Medicine team in 2009. She received her Bachelor of Science from Georgetown University and Medical Degree from University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.

Dr. Lin enjoys being able to provide care to the entire family, from children to the elderly to get a comprehensive picture of the patient. Taking the time to learn about her patients’ background and their value set is important to Dr. Lin, so she is able to collaborate with her patients to develop healthy lifestyles. Dr. Lin believes each person is unique, so a holistic approach provides the greatest benefit. As a medical acupuncturist, she sees her role as a bridge between allopathic medicine and Chinese medicine.
